Mitchell Starc got some swing going early in the innings and picked early wicket in the process. There was not great movement, but enough to keep the batsmen guessing (Photo: BCCI/IPL)

If Starc was on song from one end, Varun Aaron didn't release pressure from the other. The speedster commenced his spell with a wicket maiden and kept the opposition under check with some smart bowling (Photo: BCCI/IPL)

If there was a well charged pace battery, spinner Chahal 'turned' the attention towards his beautiful spell of leg-spin, which also got him the man of the match award. He was turning it square at one point of time, and used the surface and conditions well (Photo: BCCI/IPL)

Post RCB show, Duminy and Taylor got the rescue act in. The duo stitched a crucial stand in the middle to give the total a much needed push in the middle (Photo: BCCI/IPL)

Dinda, who has kept for the death, didn't impress as he was trying too many things in the middle. His slower ones were easily picked by both Duminy and Taylor, who accelerated in the last five (Photo: BCCI/IPL)

The RCB didn't get off to a convincing start as they lost Maddinson with only 6 on the board, but little Parthiv Patel punched above his weight to get his team off to a brisk start. He didn't stay there till the end, but put his team on track (Photo: BCCI/IPL)

DD were trying everything with the ball. Seamers, Shami in particular, were bending their back and extracting good bounce from the surface. But it was their slow bowlers who couldn't contain the pressure in the middle overs (Photo: BCCI/IPL)

It was business as usual for Virat Kohli, who worked his way to another special knock. It wasn't a blazing innings, but brisk enough to help his team cross the line (Photo: BCCI/IPL)

The star of the evening was the man in this frame. Yuvraj Singh, who was brought for a whooping 14 crore, had a lot of pressure on his shoulders, especially after the poor show in ICC World T20. With his back to the wall, Yuvraj fired all cylinders and hit a 29-ball 52 which was laced by three fours and five sixes (Photo: BCCI/IPL)
